Our goal is to support the site-specific preservation needs of historically-underrepresented communities and their socio-cultural identity and narratives through digital archiving and digital storytelling. More than platforms and processes, we take a holistic approach to community-archiving with a focus on people. Visit the FAQ for more information.
This list is slowly growing as we develop relationship with community and campus partners.
Our team got its start at the Institute for Digital Arts and Humanities at Indiana University Bloomington and is now funded by the Digital Justice Development Grant program at the American Council on Learned Societies.
The IDAH@IU team often gets requests to support archiving projects. This repository provides a starting point, a template for using simple Github Pages, developed in partnership with Jazma Sutton and through community-storytelling partnerships with ImaginX en Movimiento (IXeM) co-founded by Marisa Hicks-Alcaraz; La Casa, the Center for Research on Race, Ethnicity and Society, and the Asian Culture Center at Indiana University Bloomington; and the Remembering Freedom descendant community in Greenville and Longtown, Ohio, which hosts the community-archive project that inspired the initial development of this theme’s predecessor, the Community-Archive template.
A collective storytelling and community archiving toolkit for planning community-archive events and hosting community archives online.
